L_LTIMGCOR_API L_INT EXT_FUNCTION L_InvertedPageBitmap(pBitmap, bIsInverted, uFlags)

pBITMAPHANDLE pBitmap;

/* pointer to the bitmap handle */

L_BOOL * bIsInverted;

/* address of the variable to be updated */

L_UINT uFlags;

/* flags */

Detects if the image (page) is inverted (white text and black background), and invert it if it is not.

Parameter

Description

pBitmap

Pointer to the bitmap handle that references the bitmap.

bIsInverted

Address of the variable to be updated with the detection result. Possible values are:

 

Value

Meaning

 

TRUE

The image is inverted.

 

FALSE

The image is not inverted.

uFlags

Flags that indicate whether to invert the image. Possible values are:

 

Value

Meaning

 

INVERTEDPAGE_PROCESS

[0x00000000] Invert the image.

 

INVERTEDPAGE_NOPROCESS

[0x00000001] Don't invert the image. Generally this flag is used to find whether the image is inverted.

Returns

SUCCESS

The function was successful.

< 1

An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

This function does not support signed data images. It returns the error code ERROR_SIGNED_DATA_NOT_SUPPORTED if a signed data image is passed to this function.

If uFlags contains INVERTEDPAGE_NOPROCESS, the function will update bIsInverted with the result, without inverting the image.

To update a status bar or detect a user interrupt during execution of this function, refer to L_SetStatusCallback.

This function does not support 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images. If the image is 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color, the function will not return an error.

This function does not support 32-bit grayscale images. It returns the error code ERROR_GRAY32_UNSUPPORTED if a 32-bit grayscale image is passed to this function.
